Theists or atheists: Who is more rational?

Share

The Opinion Pages in the New York Times on Sunday had an intriguing feature, asking whether atheism is a rational belief. A theologian argues in the piece that there's an absence of evidence to support atheism as a logical position, that the best atheists could prove is that God might not exist.

Atheists, on the other hand, would say that burden of proof in this debate rests on the believers, because the amount of evil in the world contradicts the existence of God.
